IN both vertebrates and invertebrates, long-term memory differs from short-term in requiring protein synthesis during training1,2. Studies of the gill and siphon withdrawal reflex in Aplysia indicate… (More)

Presynaptic facilitation of transmitter release contributes to behavioral sensitization and dishabituation, two simple forms of learning in Aplysia. This enhancement of transmitter release can be… (More)

Presynaptic facilitation of transmitter release from Aplysia sensory neurons is an important contributor to behavioral sensitization of the gill and siphon withdrawal reflex. The enhanced release is… (More)

THE discovery that Ca2+ is necessary for the release of neurotransmitter, the primary means by which nerve cells communicate, led to the calcium hypothesis of neutransmitter release1–4, in which… (More)

To study the contribution of cAMP to the spike broadening produced by serotonin (5-HT) in the pleural sensory neurons of the tail withdrawal reflex, we utilized two phosphodiesterase-resistant cAMP… (More)
